Tools and Hardware Reviews of Flexible Toe Stretcher
Customer Review: Good product, with caveats- updated: would give 5 stars
Summary: 4 Stars
If you have perfect feet, bet these would be great...however.....most of us don't. I have some misshaped /hammer type toes (due to narrow shoes purchased when younger), and it's almost impossible to get the outside two toes into the forms. Perhaps this will get better with time, but if you have toes that aren't straight....might be dicey.
However, I really bought these because I wanted to stretch the other three (medial) toes, which do fit into the forms, and I think they will work well for this purpose.
(Can't say anything about the 'yoga' aspects about these- I just knew that the foam forms used for pedicures were insufficient, and I needed something more substantive.)
Specifically: I had joint replacement surgery on the ball of my foot (big toe), and it's resulted in crowding between the big toe and 'first toe', resulting in the formation of a corn on the sole of the foot (due to the lateral compression between the toes combined with normal vertical weight bearing in that area of my foot).
The forms do successfully stretch the space between these toes, and my foot does feel better- after ~ 2-3 uses. I paid <$7 for these at Walmart, so it does pay to shop around.
Takehome: Shop around for best price, be realistic about these (if you don't have perfect feet, don't expect them to fit perfectly), but they might be a useful, inexpensive tool to increase flexibility for the foot and toes.
Update- Applying a SMALL amount of lotion really helps to encourage stubborn toes into the forms. (not too much else they'll be too slippery and won't hold traction)
I've used these consistently for ~ 1 week, and honestly believe that they're saving me a trip to the podiatrist & have headed off the formation of a nasty corn in a bad location (ball of foot between great toe and nearest lateral toe). Best of all, my feet don't hurt as much, and seem to be improving with time.
System is not letting me increase the star rating, but I'd give them 5 stars at this point.
